Overview

Chada Katavi is stylish and wonderfully comfortable, but all the resources at Chada Katavi are shared with the local animals, therefore we all must ensure that our footprint remains light. Water is a valuable resource at the camp, especially during the dryer months, and it is shared with many other animals. The camp takes this very seriously, and "bucket showers" help to conserve the water.
